He whispers your name in the dead of night, and the firelight illuminated your sleeping form. Your eyes are closed and you are smiling, no doubt dreaming of a better tomorrow, as you always seem to be.
"What secrets lie behind you? What secrets lie before? What do you dream of, milady?" He whispers quietly into your ear, knowing that you can hear him, no matter how far you have traveled in your dreams.
"Do you dream of the warm glow of the sunset, Aphelia? Do you dream of walking upon the heavens as if they were made of ice? Does your hair, this very moment, blow in the tangy air as you look out far across the sea?" He tangles his fingers in your hair, watching you mumble in your sleep. He lays his head on your chest and listens to your heartbeat, the gentle hum of life just beneath your breast.
"What are you dreaming of, that makes that hum just a little faster? Are you falling, or are you flying? Are you soaring, or are you lost?" He mumbles into your chest, clinging to your shirt, not wanting to acknowledge what was.
"I'm so sorry, Aphelia." He whispers to you, taking your hand and brushing his thumb over the back of it in soothing circles, still amazed by your light.
"I know that, no matter what dreams they are, I will never be in them." He brushes his lips against yours, very gently, as if afraid to wake you, and a tear falls from his cheek onto yours.
"But what I wouldn't give for just one day with your heart."
~The Smiling Anon
Smile... *smiles* you always end up in my dreams...
